NAME
r.out.ascii - Converts a raster map layer into a GRASS ASCII text file.
KEYWORDS
raster,
export,
output,
ASCII
SYNOPSIS
r.out.ascii
r.out.ascii --help
r.out.ascii [-hsmi] input=name [output=name] [precision=integer] [width=integer] [null_value=string] [--overwrite] [--help] [--verbose] [--quiet] [--ui]
Flags:
- -h
- Suppress printing of header information
- -s
- Write SURFER (Golden Software) ASCII grid
- -m
- Write MODFLOW (USGS) ASCII array
- -i
- Force output of integer values
- --overwrite
- Allow output files to overwrite existing files
- --help
- Print usage summary
- --verbose
- Verbose module output
- --quiet
- Quiet module output
- --ui
- Force launching GUI dialog
Parameters:
- input=name [required]
- Name of input raster map
- output=name
- Name for output ASCII grid map (use out=- for stdout)
- precision=integer
- Number of significant digits (floating point only)
- width=integer
- Number of values printed before wrapping a line (only SURFER or MODFLOW format)
- null_value=string
- String to represent null cell (GRASS grid only)
- Default: *
r.out.ascii converts a user-specified raster map layer
(
input=name) into an ASCII grid in a text file
(
output=name) suitable for export to
other computer systems.
The GRASS program r.in.ascii can be
used to perform the reverse function, converting an ASCII file in suitable
format to GRASS raster map format.
To write a SURFER .grd ASCII GRID file (with reverted row order and different
header) use the -s flag:
r.out.ascii -s input=inname output=outname.grd [dp=value]
NULL data are coded to "1.70141e+038" for SURFER ASCII GRID files (ignoring
the
null= parameter).
The output from
r.out.ascii may be placed into a file by using the
UNIX redirection mechanism; e.g.:
r.out.ascii input=soils output=- > out.file
The output file out.file can then be printed or copied onto a CDROM
or floppy disk for export purposes.
To export the raster values as x,y,z values of cell centers (one per line)
use the r.out.xyz module.
